Postdoctoral opening in Boechler Research Group
Looking for postdoctoral researcher with experience in the area of topological mechanics and/or acoustics, or nonlinear mechanics/dynamics to join the Boechler Research Group (http://boechler.ucsd.edu/) in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of California, San Diego. A solid theoretical background in the aforementioned area, as well as strong communication skills are desired. The initial appointment would be for one year, with a potential for extension.
Programmable 3D Self-Folding Structures with Strain Engineering
Self-assembly of three-dimensional (3D) structures, through bending, twisting, folding, and buckling, has garnered broad interest among physicists, mathematicians, chemists, and biologists. Herein strain engineering and geometric frustration as an on-demand strategy for fabricating spontaneous rolling “origami” structures with programmable multistability across multiple length scales are exploited.
Smart Laser-Writable Micropatterns with Multiscale Photo/ Moisture Reconstructible Structure
The design of a dynamic, versatile, convertible, and responsive micropatterned system is realized by a photo/moisture reconstructible multiscale film-substrate bilayer structure. Specifically, a hydrophilic polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/laponite (LP) thin film is covalently bonded to a photothermally active polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)/carbon black (CB) soft substrate. A laser engraver can inscribe programmable aligned micro-wrinkles by manipulating laser power and spatiotemporal control.
